  • Glaciomarine Deltas of Maine and Their Relation to Late Pleistocene-Holocene Crustal Movements
    Maine Geological Survey Neotcctonics of Maine 1989 Glaciomarine Deltas of Maine and Their Relation to Late Pleistocene-Holocene Crustal Movements Woodrow B. Thompson Maine Geological Survey Augusta, Maine 04333 Kristine J . Crossen Geology Department University ofAlaska Anchorage, Alaska 99507 Harold W. Borns, Jr. Institute for Quaternary Studies University of Maine Orono, Maine 04469 Bjorn G. Andersen University of Oslo Oslo, Norway ABSTRACT The deglaciation of southern Maine in late Wisconsinan time was accompanied by marine submergence of the isostatically-depressed coastal lowland. Glacial meltwater streams deposited over 100 Gilbert-type deltas into the sea during the transgressive phase of submergence, between about 14,000 and 13,000 yr B.P. These deltas were deposited either in contact with the ice margin or very close to it. They are classified into four categories based on depositional environment: ice-contact deltas (39% ), esker-fed ice-contact deltas (30% ), leeside deltas (26% ), and distal outwash deltas (5% ). Most of the deltas for which subsurface data are available accumulated in water less than 80 m deep, and the ice-contact deltas are believed to have formed along a grounded tidewater-glacier margin. Bedrock strike ridges and other hills slowed the retreat of the ice margin, causing brief stillstands during which deltas were deposited adjacent to these topographic highs. The sequence of glaciomarine deltas in Maine probably formed when the transgressing sea had reached its maximum depth and relative sea level was beginning to fall in response to isostatic crustal uplift. The elevations of the contacts between the topset and foreset beds of 65 deltas in Maine and New Brunswick were measured in order to locate the positions of sea level to which the deltas were graded.

  • Deglacial Patterns and Ice-Sheet Dynamics in the Fjords of Southern Nordland, Norway
    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY Vol 98 Nr. 4 https://dx.doi.org/10.17850/njg98-4-07 Deglacial patterns and ice-sheet dynamics in the fjords of southern Nordland, Norway Fredrik Høgaas1, Lars Olsen1, Lina Gislefoss1, Oddvar Longva1, Anders Romundset1 & Harald Sveian1 1Geological Survey of Norway, P.O. Box 6315 Torgarden, NO–7491 Trondheim, Norway. E-mail corresponding author (Fredrik Høgaas): [email protected] This paper presents results from glacial geomorphology mapping in and adjacent to Velfjorden and Ursfjorden in the southern Nordland region of Norway. Submarine and terrestrial landforms were studied and mapped using high-resolution multibeam bathymetric and airborne LiDAR data, in addition to reconnaissance in the field. The work unites ice-marginal deposits related to the established Tautra and Tjøtta glacial events which took place during the Younger Dryas (YD) chronozone. In Ursfjorden, an outlet glacier deposited a c. 100 m-high terminal moraine, whereas moraine ridges and a large sedimentary wedge were deposited in the inner part of Velfjorden. Highly elongated subglacial bedforms located inside the ice-marginal landforms reveal that the fjords were occupied by fast-flowing ice streams during YD. Eighteen new radiocarbon dates from the region, along with twelve recalibrated dates from previous studies, provide time-constraints for ice-sheet configuration and dynamics during deglaciation. Radiocarbon dates suggest that the outer coastal islands became ice-free prior to 14 cal ka BP. Glacially overridden shell-rich units dated to the Allerød Interstadial indicate that the YD ice sheet readvanced at least 5 km before depositing the terminal moraine in Ursfjorden. The ages of shells found near the distinct, regionally correlative, YD raised shoreline indicate that the glacial readvance culminated around early to mid-YD.

  • Pumice in the North Atlantic
    Ocean-transported pumice in the North Atlantic Anthony Newton PhD University of Edinburgh 1999 Declaration I, Anthony Newton hereby declare that the work contained herein is my own and has not previously been presented for examination. Any contributions by others is acknowledged in the text. September 1999 ii For Keith Newton 1930-1984 iii “Some days we would pass through pumice lying in ridges, each piece uniformly the size and appearance of a bath sponge, then again we should pass through perfect fields of small yellow pumice spread evenly over the surface just for all the world like a green field of grass covered all over with buttercups, and the undulation of the swell of the trade wind produced an indescribably pretty appearance.” (Reeves, 1884). iv Abstract The overall aims of this study are to identify the sources of the widespread Holocene pumice deposits found along the coasts of the North Atlantic region and establish the ages of the source eruptions. In order to tackle this, it is necessary to determine whether it is possible to “fingerprint” the pumice of individual eruptions and link ocean-transported material with the established tephrochronological framework based on the stratigraphy of airfall deposits. Over 1500 electron probe microanalyses and over 200 Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry analyses have been undertaken on pumice and tephra samples. These are the first high quality grain specific analyses carried out on ocean-transported pumice in the North Atlantic. Current knowledge of the extent of pumice distribution in the North Atlantic region is assessed for both shoreline (natural) and archaeological contexts.

  • Moray and Caithness
    Moray and Caithness: A landscape fashioned by geology Moray and Caithness The far north-east of Scotland encompasses a wide range of landscapes, from the rolling hills of Moray and the coastal flagstone cliffs of Caithness, to the blanket peat bogs of the Flow Country and the ancient rugged A Landscape Fashioned by Geology mountains of eastern Sutherland. These landscapes have all formed during a long and complex geological Clive Auton, Jon Merritt and Kathryn Goodenough history, from rocks that were buckled and warped by continental collisions that occurred many hundreds of millions of years ago, to the sculpting of the hills and valleys by glaciers just a few thousand years ago. Since Neolithic times, the inhabitants of the region have made use of its geological resources and also changed its appearance irrevocably. This book describes the whole of that geological and human history, laying bare the events that have shaped the landscape of this remote but intriguing corner of Scotland. About the Authors Mor Clive Auton has worked as a field geologist in Scotland for almost thirty years on many aspects of the rocks and landscape, A particularly in the Highlands and Northern Isles, but also around the Moray and Solway firths. He is particularly interested in the y AN glacial history of Moray and Caithness and also in the Old Red Sandstone rocks of the Orcadian Basin. Clive is an active member D C of the Quaternary Research Association and has led many geological field excursions to the Caithness and Moray area. A Jon Merritt has worked as a field geologist on various aspects of the superficial deposits and glacial landforms of Scotland for over ith N thirty years, particularly in the Highlands and Islands.

  • Post Little Ice Age Rebound in the Glacier Bay Region
    Roman J. Motyka and others 57 Post Little Ice Age Rebound in the Glacier Bay Region Roman J. Motyka1,2, Christopher F. Larsen1, Jeffrey T. Freymueller1, and Keith A. Echelmeyer1 Abstract. Extreme uplift and sea level changes in southeast Alaska have been documented by (1) a regional GPS deformation array consisting of 74 sites; (2) 18 tide gage measurements of sea-level changes; and (3) 27 raised shoreline measurements of total uplift. The GPS data show peak uplift rates of 30 mm/ yr in Glacier Bay, and also delineated a second center of rapid uplift east of Yakutat with peak rates of 32 mm/yr. These studies documented rapid and continuous total sea level changes of up to 5.7 m, and constrained the age of the ongoing uplift to less than 250 yrs. The raised shorelines show a pattern of higher uplift surrounding the region of peak GPS uplift rates in Glacier Bay, while the dating of these shorelines shows that they began uplifting at the same time the massive Glacier Bay Icefield began its retreat. This is a direct observation of glacial isostatic rebound processes acting on timescales of only a few hundred years in southern Alaska. Introduction Icefields and glaciers in the coastal mountains of southern Alaska and Canada have undergone rapid thinning over the last 250 years (Arendt and others, 2002) and the associated unloading of the Earth’s surface has led to isostatic rebound of southern Alaska. In this study, we compared changes in sea level derived from tide gage observations and raised shoreline studies, and uplift rates derived from Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements to uplift predictions from viscoelastic rebound models.
